+
+Just before Christmas the new release of LaTeX was made available
+for testing. \LaTeXe\ is the new standard version of
+\LaTeX---prepared and supported by the \LaTeX3 project team. It is
+upwardly compatible with \LaTeX\ 2.09 documents, but contains new
+features.
+
+These are described in a new edition of \emph{\LaTeX: A Document Preparation
+System} by Leslie Lamport (to appear during 1994) and \emph{The \LaTeX\
+Companion} by Goossens, Mittelbach and Samarin, both published by
+Addison-Wesley.
+
+[There is also a brief overview of them in this publication....????]
+
+\LaTeXe will be distributed twice a year but his distribution is a
+preliminary test release and, as such, it does not contain all of the
+files and features that will be part of the full release. In
+particular, it does not contain the planned extensions in the area of
+graphics inclusion.
+
+The first full release will be available in Spring 1994.
+
+Since this is a test release please get it {\em and test it}\ldots
+on as many different systems as possible!
+
+LaTeX2e can be retrieved by anonymous ftp from the CTAN archives:
